The helicopter in the drawing is moving horizontally to the right at a constant velocity. The weight of the helicopter is W=4900

0 N. The lift force L generated by the rotating blade makes an angle of 21.0° with respect to the vertical. (a) What is the magnitude of the lift force? (b) Determine the magnitude of the air resistance R that opposes the motion.

Answer:

(a) The magnitude of the lift force is 52144.71 N, approximately.

(b) The magnitude of the air resistance force opposing the movement is 17834.54 N, approximately.

Explanation:

Since the helicopter is moving horizontally at a constant velocity, we can assume that the net force acting on it is zero, then

(a) in the vertical direction we have

$L\cos(20\deg)-W=0\\L=\frac{W}{\cos(20\deg)}=\frac{49000 N}{\cos(20\deg)}\approx \mathbf{52144.71 N}$ .

(b) Now horizontally,

$L\sin(20\deg)-R=0\\R=L\sin(20\deg)=52144.71 N\times \sin(20\deg) \approx \mathbf{17834.54 N}.$

A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–d

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

A paper in the journal Current Biology tells of some jellyfish-like animals that attack their prey by launching stinging cells i

jek_recluse [69]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of cells is 0 as they were at rest

The acceleration of the cell, $a=5.3\times 10^{7}\ m/s^2$

Time, t = 700 ns

We need to find the maximum speed reached by the cells and the distance traveled during the acceleration. Let v is the final speed. So,

$v=u+at\\\\\because u =0\\\\v=at\\\\v=5.3\times 10^7\times 700\times 10^{-9}\\\\v=37.1\ m/s$

Let d is the distance traveled. Using equation of motion as follows :

$d=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 5.3\times 10^7\times (700\times 10^{-9})^2\\\\d=1.29\times 10^{-5}\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Two astronauts on opposite ends of a spaceship are comparing lunches. One has an apple, the other has an orange. They decide to

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The speed and direction of the apple is 1.448 m/s and 66.65°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of apple = 0.110 kg

Speed = 1.13 m/s

Mass of orange = 0.150 kg

Speed = 1.25 m/s

Suppose we find the final speed and direction of the apple in this case

Using conservation of momentum:

Before:

In x direction,

$P_{b}=m_{p}v_{p}-m_{o}v_{o}$

$P_{b}=0.110\times1.13-0.150\times1.25$

$P_{b}=−0.0632\ kg-m/s$

In y direction = 0

After:

$v_{ay}$ is velocity of the apple in the y direction

$v_{ax}$ is the velocity of the apple in the x direction

Momentum again:

In x direction,

$0.110\times v_{ax}+0=−0.0632$

$v_{x}=\dfrac{−0.0632}{0.110}$

$v_{x}=−0.574\ m/s$

In y-direction,

$0.110\times v_{ay}-0.150\times0.977=0$

$v_{ay}=\dfrac{0.150\times0.977}{0.110}$

$v_{ay}=1.33\ m/s$

We need to calculate the speed of apple

$v_{a}=\sqrt{(v_{x})^2+(v_{y})^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{a}=\sqrt{(−0.574)^2+(1.33)^2}$

$v_{a}=1.448\ m/s$

We need to calculate the direction of the apple

Using formula of angle

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{v_{ay}}{v_{ax}}$

Put the value into the formula

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{1.33}{0.574})$

$\theta=66.65^{\circ}$

Hence, The speed and direction of the apple is 1.448 m/s and 66.65°.

A responder can protect himself/herself from radiation by using shielding as a response action. What materials are best for prot

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Few millimeter thick aluminium, water, wood, acrylic glass or plastic.

Explanation:

The materials that are best for protection against beta particles are few millimeter thickness of aluminium, but for the high energy beta-particles radiations the low atomic mass materials such as plastic, wood, water and acrylic glass can be used.

These materials can also be used in personal protective equipment which includes all the clothing that can be worn to prevent any injury or illness due to the exposure to radiation.
